Well, I probably /would recommend alcohol. A nice night out with friends will help with stress, if that's the trigger for the outbreak. Besides, I only have the ability to endorse what I would prescribe myself or seeking medical counsel-what others will ACTUALLY choose will often ignore what scientists have said based on their own mistrust. It's just that, in this one instance, some homeopathic treatments WILL likely induce a psychosomatic response based off of the calming of the individual.
